Questions from Peebles
Are uPVC lanterns as good as aluminium?
They do the same job at a lower price, with bulkier frames and fewer colour and size options. For most showpiece extensions aluminium is worth the extra.
Will white uPVC yellow over time?
Modern uPVC profiles are UV-stabilised and should stay white with normal cleaning. Very old lanterns, especially with polycarbonate panels, are the ones that discolour.
How quickly can I get a roof lantern in Peebles?
Stock sizes are typically ready in 5–10 working days, made-to-measure in 3–4 weeks, plus delivery. Your quote gives the date for EH45.
Do I need planning permission for a roof lantern in Peebles?
Often not, but it depends on the roof, the property and whether it is listed or in a conservation area. Check with your council before ordering.
